Why take this tour?
Pedal your way through the boozy backstreets of Bermondsey and Southwark, where gin—once known as Mother’s Ruin—helped shape London’s colourful past. This leisurely ride takes you through London’s industrial heritage, with stops at the buzzing Maltby Street Market and some of the city’s prettiest locations. As you sip a range of gins from our quirky Gincycle, you’ll take in stunning views of Tower Bridge and Borough Market. Along the way, your Tally Ho guide will share the scandalous secrets of London’s gin-soaked history, with time to get creative during a graffiti session in a legal street art zone. It’s gin, history, and hands-on fun— with plenty of laughs in between!
